Thank you for the test, Alexey.  In your case, the per-core
settings seem to take at least some effect.  Since the load
balancer seems to prioritise cores with lower indices, I
wonder what the same test would show if core 0 instead of
core 7 had an .epp of 100.  Under what kind of load did you
perform your test, and does load affect the frequencies?
